Al-Zahra.. According to Al-Mutanabbi's Principle of Preference

Fatima Zahra Al-Mansouri was the second woman to head the government, after the Tunisian Najla Bouden. Zahra progressed through various responsibilities, starting in the Moroccan party she helped establish, "Authenticity and Modernity," a title that has been extensively researched and debated by intellectuals, with some wanting it to represent authenticity without modernity and others wanting the opposite. Fatima Zahra's assumption of the presidency of the Moroccan government aligns with the title of her party. If we explore authenticity and the heritage of Arab women specifically, we will find many women who held significant positions in history, some behind the scenes, wielding decisive influence, and others who became queens, starting with Arwa Al-Sulayhi in Yemen and Shajarat al-Durr in Egypt. This means that the highest positions were not prohibited for women, nor did they provoke war against them due to their gender, despite the differing opinions of scholars and authors of tax and royal decree books, who focused on the matters of the believers or the caliphate, implying that masculinity was one of the main conditions for leadership. However, the position of minister remained monopolized by men until Iraq broke this barrier by appointing the first female minister in the Arab region. Similarly, the position of prime minister was also dominated by men until Tunisia appointed a female prime minister. In Islamic countries outside the Arab region, more than one woman has held the position of prime minister, and women have appeared as heads of their countries, serving as both heads of state and prime ministers or queens and prime ministers of their gender. We do not claim that non-Muslim countries are restricted by gender conditions, except for what occurred in electoral participation, which was previously limited to males. The United States has not been able to elevate a woman to the presidency, but this depended on elections, and the two women did not have the fortune to ascend to the presidency. As for Fatima Zahra Al-Mansouri, she rose in the elections after her party, "Authenticity and Modernity," took the lead in the elections. Although she was the frontrunner in her party, her experience and education were taken into account. She served as the mayor of her city, Marrakech, and came from a family with this lineage. She held the position of Minister of National Land and several other positions that she successfully led, being a lawyer by virtue of her university education in Morocco and higher education in France. Therefore, she was chosen, without her gender being an obstacle. One might ask why, despite the presence of women in parties and their participation in elections for all those decades, none of them has emerged for this position? In addition to the delay in women's education in most countries for long periods, there is the social barrier; society is not prepared to accept women advancing to top positions. If a woman makes a mistake, it is interpreted through her gender, even though men's mistakes can be catastrophic. Women have learned and entered the political world through its widest doors, and the minister who was appointed boldly by her state’s system has led to the number of female ministers being equal to that of men. This required gradual progress with societal advancement and the formulation of laws that ensure gender equality and prevent discrimination. In addition to education and experience in selecting a woman or a man for this or that position, women have advantages when their maternal emotions and responsibilities elevate them from their homes to society, being viewed as mothers in what their positions allow them. This trait, if practiced by the officeholder, will support her success, along with her education and experiences. In general, if Fatima Zahra succeeds in what she has been entrusted with, it is an experience that removes discrimination against her gender, and if she does not succeed, it should not be attributed to her gender, as many men have strived and failed in their endeavors. Women should not have to exert double effort to achieve perfection in "religion and intellect." Furthermore, the ancient poet Abu Al-Tayyib Al-Mutanabbi (died: 354 AH) established a principle of superiority, despite gender differences: "If women were like those we know, / Women would surpass men / And the femininity of the sun's name is not a flaw / Nor is the masculinity a pride for the crescent." According to this principle, it could be said regarding the selection of Fatima Zahra as the head of her government. An Iraqi writer.
